Question

Regina has collected 125 seashells she gives her little brother Chris 53 seashells Regina wants to put her remaining seashells in Little Boxes there will be 9 seashells and each box how many boxes will she need

Answer 1

Answer:

She will need 8 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Total no of seashells = 125

She gives her little brother Chris 53 seashells.

Remaining seashells = 125 - 53

= 72

Regina wants to put her remaining seashells in Little Boxes. There will be 9 seashells in each box.

No of boxes needed = remaining seashells/total no of seashells in each box

$=\dfrac{72}{9}\\\\=8$

Hence, she will need 8 boxes.
